Fragrance information:

The year 1929 gave us Une Idée Chanel. By character, a feminine fragrance drawing from the east and floral families. Perfumer Coco Chanel left a distinct mark on this composition. Available as perfume extract.

The sillage is moderate — present, but never overpowering. It's a light presence — longevity is low, perfect for those who love something airy. Brand country — France: a place that truly knows its way around a great scent. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The olfactory structure of Une Idée unfolds as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Chanel comes through in the way notes appear and fade. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Perfume extract emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Gourmet, Floral and Spicy without random overlap. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. In longevity terms Low indicates a stable lasting impression. In trail behavior Middle defines the projection profile in space.

When the structure is mixed the opening appears as one connected movement with a voluminous floral mood: Floral Notes, Spices and Sweet Accord.

The inner phases are perceived as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.

From the group perspective the structure relies on Floral, Spicy, Sweet and Gourmet. It also reaches into Whiteflower.

Taken together Une Idée reads as a cohesive composition — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. These are the fragrances best experienced in wear.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Low (1 to 2 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
